DISCOVER TRULY REWARDING & ENRICHING VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Making a positive life-changing impact during your travels

Volunteer Teaching in Laos

As one of the world's least developed countries Laos offers a fantastic volunteer opportunity.

Our volunteers have the chance to help offer a level of education unavailable to most people within Laos whilst living and integrating into a culture than is still relatively untouched by modern Western society, while bettering the lives of others.

Lao people are extremely friendly and volunteers will find their students are well behaved and incredibly respectful with a strong desire to learn. Volunteering in Laos is something that you can do in order to find fulfillment as well as a means of making a difference in people's lives. Those who volunteer realize that it's not just about giving money when it comes to donations.

Giving of your time and skills enables others to benefit in ways that will make an impact in their everyday lives and give them benefits that will help their overall lives and lifestyles as well.
